About Us

 

We at Trident Labs Services pride ourselves on our client based mentality and quick turnaround times!

 

Trident Labs Services, Inc. is a leader in providing low cost water testing, soil analysis and wastewater analysis in the greater Charleston area. We are a fully operational lab certified by the state of South Carolina in Clean Water, Safe Drinking Water and Solid and Hazardous Materials. We specialize in bacteriological, metals, organics and a variety of other wet chemical analysis. Our lab is very versatile so that we are able to provide testing for an entire municipality, as well as providing water testing for private residence, realtors, line clearings and our many industrial clients.

 

Started in 1976, we are a small family owned business, which keeps our overhead to a minimum, letting us pass that savings off to our clients. Our average turnaround for sample analysis is 5 days which is unheard of in the analytical field. We have 8 full time employees and 3 part time employees. Our employees hold degrees such as a PHD in Chemistry, BA in Chemistry, BS in Environmental Science as well as multiple years of experience in a variety of fields.  

 

Our field personnel are certified water and waste treatment plant operators. This allows us to handle wastewater operations for our clients as well as sample pickup and collection, saving our clients the expense of hiring their own plant operators.

 

Our administrative personnel are able to complete the majority of the state required forms including DMR’s, SMR’s and Drinking Water Bacteriological Analysis Sample Summaries (1974).
